rather than attacking barack obama which is thus far been the default mode for the gop. it is an interesting choice. you would think governor christie would be the attack dog which i am sure he will be in part and but it also might present a shift in the tone and strategy of the mitt romney campaign. -- a keynote speech at a convention is often seen as a springboard. what are governor chris chrisitie's aspirations? >> he is at the top of governor romney's vice presidential pick list. he always says he is not ruling out a presidential run but it is not in his plan that this time. his name has to be out there for 2016 a long with people like jbe bush -- jeb bush. it seemed like he is rather ambitious but also understand that may be it is not quite his time at which is how he phrased it when he said he was not going to run this time around. >> the other news was the selection of senator mark rubio of florida to introduce governor romney as he accepts his nominatin. is this used as a consolation prize for senator rubio because it was not elected to the vice presidential pick

it is what the public might have expected when electing obama in november. you can say the same on judges and somewhat the same on foreign policy. some things have gone better than might have expected, and we should not be shy about saying so and encouraging a streak of moderation here and there when it presents itself. when it comes to economic policy, what we have seen is not what the public might have expected on election day. if you had set in november that by june we will have spent one trillion dollars or so on a stimulus package and another one trillion dollars on the banks, have a deficit for the year and a budget that calls for an explosion of debt with no end in sight, and talking about 8 $2 trillion health care plan, and the government owns gm and chrysler, i think people would have thought that was crazy. it is clear that there is more of that to come. we are seeing an approach to economic policy that increasingly seems as though it wants to eliminate risk in the economy, to gain control over markets in ways that threaten to stifle the energy and

[applause] president obama's task force on policing gives us a good place to start. it's recommendations offer a roadmap for reform from training to technology guided by more and better data. we should make sure every police department in the country has body cameras to record interaction between officers on patrol and suspects. that will improve transparency and accountability, it will help protect good people on both sides of the lens. for every tragedy caught on tape, there surely have been many more that remained invisible. not every problem can be or will be prevented by cameras but this is a common sense step we should take. the president has provided the idea of matching funds to state and local governments investing in body cameras. we should go farther and make this the norm everywhere. and we should listen to law enforcement leaders who are calling for a renewed focus working with communities to prevent crime rather than measuring the success just by the number of assists or convictions. i supported a greater emphasis on community policing along with puttin
